Nanopore-Sequencing Characterization of the Gut Microbiota of <i>Melolontha melolontha</i> Larvae: Contribution to Protection against Entomopathogenic Nematodes?

Nanopore-Sequencing Characterization of the Gut Microbiota of <i>Melolontha melolontha</i> Larvae: Contribution to Protection against Entomopathogenic Nematodes?

This study focused on the potential relationships between midgut microbiota of the common cockchafer <i>Melolontha melolontha</i> larvae and their resistance to entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) infection. We investigated the bacterial community associated with control and unsusceptible E...
